exact same problem today. 2018 Diesel Captiva. Split in the intercooler hose. I could hear the hiss too when I tried flooring the accelerometer. Thank you for an amazing video

[@davecoombs6318]

Thanks so much, this was spot on. Have the same car, badged as Vauxhall Antara, with EGR & DPF issues, loss of power and black smoke on acceleration. Watch video and checked mine for split, changed hose and problems solved. Thank you!

[@justintonga6109]

I’m going to check mine . It’s a 2012 diesel Captiva I just bought on Friday . I noticed hissing sound and also lots of black smoke . Had a full service done today and they said they did a re-gen but reccomend me taking it to Holden for a DPF clean/replacement because they don’t do it . I’m going to give this a crack . Very helpful video . Thanks you

Hi had this problem with my car Vauxhall Antara nav se 2.2 it was a very hard to get to place but got it done in about 2 hours. 👍🏻😎👍🏻

[@johnwilson6111]

Mine was cracked exactly as you show here. I changed both hoses on mine and it's solved several error code issues.

[@andesmallku]

You are the BEST mate.

[@a1mechanicaloakey639]

I tried.

[@Ribbox]

Thanks so much for this, we have been having issue for the last 2 years with DPF light and power reduction light coming on. Fault investigation by garage found nothing, then main dealership service found nothing. The funny thing was the dealership service replaced the gearbox oil, which is filled next to the hose. In the end I just replaced my, took about 30 mins to replace, but had to order via eBay as part not available. Once replaced all is good. Other issues resolved was, fan always on for 5-10mins when engine turned off every time.

[@a1mechanicaloakey639]

I'm glad Mark. 😊 please do share the video. I had many customers myself been to other shops with no luck.

[@Ribbox]

@@a1mechanicaloakey639 I see so many Captiva with black smoke on the tail gate and think they have a split pipe. I nearly feel like printing a flyer with link to your video explaining the issue and to get it checked by a garage.

[@a1mechanicaloakey639]

Lol

[@longhuynh5249]

Good info, thanks heaps

[@LegendLength]

I have bad engine power and computer says dpf full of ash. I wonder if that could be due to an exhaust leak because there's no code maf or egr sensors?

[@mattaitchey4917]

Hi there ours is having trouble maintaining boost or sometimes overboost, codes are p0047 & p0299. We can hear the wastegate opening quite often even at light throttle, it sounds like an external wastegate on a jap racecar lol!! sometimes it goes really well and seems like theres no problems with it other times it really lacks power and struggles to move. I just wonder if its the turbo itself or something else, its done 221,000km 😊 Cheers

[@ericknoxkwarteng1833]

Hi I have 2013 captiva, the engine makes so loud nocking noise with car and spanner symbol on it. when I drive on low speed for about 30mins, service symbol and noise disappear. Where are you located mate?

[@ibrahima5184]

Hey i have the same problem now and can please say what was the wrong !! I got tired and no one did know what is the problem now , which part was broken ! Or what was the problem ? Thank's

[@codywhite8369]

I have a 2013 captiva which engine light came on and went off came on then off, took it into the shop to get looked at was told egr valve not working, New egr and check engine light came of with same code p0401 took it into another shop they said had excess carbon build up paid for service for complete flush, hour after they reset the code the light came back on same code. Black smoke when you put your foot down on the gas. Leaves a cloud of black smoke. Out the back of the exhaust pipes is a thick carbon buildup. So I'm guessing will be DPF blocked up.

[@a1mechanicaloakey639]

Follow the procedure on the video, if not find a professional.

[@aleksandarstojchevski5070]

Hi. I have Captiva from 2007 very often i have light on my display that i have inactive esp control.

[@zdravkoleski2375]

Captiva diesel whining sound when accelerating only what you think sir?

[@shu-chunwu1910]

Looks like my 2017 Holden captiva also have the same problem. May I please know how much for getting those sorted and can you come to Brisbane north? Thanks.

I wish you could do a step by step video so we could see how it can be replaced

[@ipreferlovethanhate7855]

What is the name of this hose!

[@nathanandjoyce4487]

which obd scanner do you use ? It looks very useful but there's so many to buy out there. I have a chevrolet captiva 2.2 diesel manual. In my book it does not tell me which obd type I need (16 pin ) or different. It is a uk model not EU car. Ideally the kind you have with a large screen for diagnostics is good for me. Any help would be useful thanks.

[@a1mechanicaloakey639]

All cars have obd 16 pin. Atleast since 1998. I have autel ultra. It has very large screen and super fast to use.

He mate,i’ve got same problem,but the thing is there’s no warning symbol on the dash,and it’s driving perfectly,it’s just the smoke that come’s out on the exhaust often,and when i pulled over and turned off the engine,the fan started to run in full speed for about 1-2 minutes,what was the problem?been in 3 mechanic already.

[@a1mechanicaloakey639]

Bring it to me

[@reynaldolalog5623]

Been also on fuel injector specialist,but nothing happen.there was no scan diagnostics.

[@a1mechanicaloakey639]

It's hard to diagnose over text. I will need to see the car.

[@hlongoloza]

Had the same issue, no warning light but a nasty black smoke on low gears & hard acceleration. I took the same root as per the video and got the culprit cracked on its bottom part and I had a custom one made with stainless steel pipe. Now she runs like a horse with no issues.

I have this problem also. Engine light with spanner symbol inside comes on. Car drives and increases speed but not like when i use the accelerator pedal normally. Turn the engine off and light goes out. Starts again, no light on and acceleration back to normal. Light comes on every 100 to 200km. Disappears when engine turned off.

У меня была проблема с DPF как я думал, пришлось его удалить и перепрошить блок управления, но дело оказалось не в этом, под турбиной идет приемная труба на интеркулер, она стальная, т.к. температуры высокие, и на флянце этой трубы крепления к турбине,была заводская трещина, фланец не был хорошо проварен на заводе, после устранения неисправности, ошибки перестали появляться, но я без сажевика,ЕГР и со спорт прошивкой 220 л.с))) А вот шланги не менял, пробег 180 тыс. км, сборка Корея
